    THANK YOU! I'm glad you noticed Anastasia hit her head trying to get on the train. For some reason, many reactors don't notice that and are clueless why she has amnesia.

    Anastasia is, quite literally, my favorite animated movie of ALL TIME, and also in my TOP 3 favorite movies (in general) of all time. It’s just absolutely beautiful! The animation style is gorgeous, the characters are really well fleshed out (they feel like real adults and not super young, which is so refreshing), the voice acting was great, the chemistry between Anastasia and Dimitri is off the charts, her outfits are dazzling, the songs are iconic unforgettable MASTERPIECES!!!

    Don Bluth really gave Disney a run for their money back in the day. He was a big believer in kids being able to handle almost anything scary or sad as long as the film had a happy ending. The Secret of NIMH and An American Tail are both gorgeous animations with seriously sad and stressful subject matter. Might as well mention The Land Before Time as well.

    It may not be accurate to the real fall of the Romanov family, (trust me, it gets really sad,) but it's still one of director, Don Bluth's best films. The animation is amazing, and the songs slap, especially "In The Dark Of The Night. I hope you check out Bluth's other movies someday, including the prequel to this one.

      ​@@ChuuzusYes, he was a "Mystic healer" hired by the real life Romanov family to cure Anastasia's brother's hemophilia, and supposedly survived being poisoned, stabbed, and shot only succumbing to hypothermia when they threw him in a frozen river. In fact, the whole film is based on the real October Revolution that led to their downfall, and the subsequent claims from women that they were Anastasia, and they survived the royal family's execution. Sadly, DNA evidence after the film's release revealed that she hadn't.

    This is a great, movie, but it's also sad to learn that the real Anastasia was executed by the Bolsheviks along with her family during the 1917 Russian Revolution. It was debated if she could have escaped at the time. And just like in the movie, many women claimed they were Anastasia. However, DNA proof that she didn’t was found not long after the film's release.

    The director Don Bluth used to work for Disney, and Anastasia was definitely him trying to do a Disney-style movie
    In real life the Tsar of Russia was a mass-murdering monster who killed over a million of his own people, mostly Jews, and kept the poor cold and starved. That's why they rose up and overthrew him lol. Not that things got better after he was gone, but that's another story...
    Rasputin was a real guy, but he was long dead by the time of the Revolution. He wasn't an evil wizard, he was just a freak who used his position to have sex with as many women as he wanted, including the queen, which is why he was killed :P

    I loved this movie growing up and the music so powerful ad catchy, there are time you just want to sing along. But I honestly love the villain in this story and movie. Finally, a real terrifying villain that matches his character. I liked this movie. and this was a fun reaction.

    I forgot how much I love this movie! I even had the Anastasia barbie lol. It made me wanna learn Russian since I'm part Russian but omg it was hard af lol. They got some bomb ass songs though. And the song that Rasputin sings, in the dark of the night, the Russian version is lit af 🔥❤
